Back in the dim and distant past I promised to post this. I've finally got round to editing it.

Vid showing most of the Ousel's Nest boulder problems. If you've done everything at Brownstones, this is a similar(ish) style. 6C - 7C+

Looks like you might have to select high quality manually? Loads up as 480 for me, which is a bit crappy.

And I wrote an article, you can read it here if you feel like it:

I like the idea of a guide book put together by a man with a penchant for magical realism

[GCW]

Looking forward to it!!

I left Baby Bouncer as 6+ intentionally, as it felt pretty easy and a lardster like me flashing 6C+ is rare.

Good vid G, interesting that you lanked Kingdom of Slope, I had to use the intermediary!
Great place, need to head back at some point!

it wasn't lank, it was all about rocking over on that right foot smear.

On Baby Bouncer I think body length might make a difference - I had to jump the first move but it looks like you can move your hands up a bit before cutting loose. Have done a proper sitter as well. A bit harder but the crux is the same. Either way, it may well be over graded. I'm sure some of these will take a few repeats to settle, so it's good to discuss.

I've never heard of such a club

If that's the one with Dave Thomas on front it's a truly great guide

First guide I bought. It is fantastic, contains good pub guide, splendid route descriptions, e.g. 'Garth, a hairy chest celebration of the pump', there's also a route description in Hebrew in there somewhere. It certainly captures the mood of the area.
